Rotary hot air dryers excel at continuously drying bulk materials by tumbling them inside a rotating drum, while hot air flows through the drum to remove moisture. This simple yet highly effective process makes rotary hot air dryers a staple in industries requiring high-capacity, low-maintenance drying. They are especially valuable for processing materials prone to clumping, as the tumbling action promotes even drying.
